Subject: s/l bedical backup.... doesnt sound like medical

This is a letter concerning your June 21, 2006 correspondence in which you alleged that I tried to admit a patient without a proper **bedical** backup.


 


I performed surgery on a patient who is 307 pounds who is being treated at Medical University for a variety of medical problems.  She was completely cleared by Medical University for surgery.  I made a decision at that time to have her for 23-hour observation and pain control until the next morning.

Subject: No, not a medical record, but it is being put

While I realize it is the OP's responsibility to doublecheck whatever answers received here, and it's fine to be lazy in any other posts on the board, but IMO, it's still a good idea to give correct answers -- spelling, capitalization, and all -- when providing word help. Otherwise, if the OP is also "lazy" it will end up in a medical record the wrong way. Not major in this case, but could be in others ...

Just my opinion, of course.
